    Mid 40s and a rainy Sunday. 0.45” today with another batch moving in. Like many locations it’s been a wet April with 3.26” imby. The mature Swamp White Oak in our neighbors yard bloomed the other day.

    Rain was a dud here today. Let’s see what tonight brings. Tornado Sirens blaring down in Des Moines.

    I felt chilly last night around 10pm when the air temp dropped into the 70s. Amazing how quickly the body acclimates.

    Nabbed a 100 yesterday. Dry heat rocks

    Only made it to 99 at KPSP yesterday.

    I’m ready for a weather whiplash today. Currently it’s 30 degrees with a very light dusting of snow overnight. Heading to visit my parents in Palm Desert CA, where we will be pushing 100 the next several days

    Snow showers here as well. Freeze warning tonight

    Mid 40s and lots of rain today, a few rumbles of Thunder too. All this moisture is great. Winds were really kicking earlier. 30 degrees warmer down I-35 in Des Moines.

    Highway 61 traffic jams imminent.

    Grass/shrubs off to the races now. Trees looking ready to burst into action. Mid 70s this weekend should bring out the green.

    Hopefully the weather is better for us in 2099. Good luck and enjoy the celestial event today everyone.

    Washout on Sunday. More raindrops falling this morning. Love it.

    September 14, 2099 there will be a Solar eclipse with the totality passing right through Minneapolis and Madison. Too bad I’ll be 109 or more likely dead. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_September_14,_2099

    My company doesn’t build them. We just got contracted to do some engineering work.

    I’m up in Maple Grove this morning. Borderline snow squall conditions at times. Definitely at least an inch down and still snowing steadily. Backwards winter!

    Had some snowflakes mix in with the rain today in rural Nicollet County MN where I was doing a geotechnical investigation for a future solar farm. Metro stayed dry.

    Good write up on the early week storm by the NWS and DNR. Revenge of the lost winter indeed. https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/climate/journal/lost-winters-revenge-storm-march-23-27.html

    Last chilly morning for the foreseeable future. Decent sunrise at the office this morning.

    Suddenly the atmosphere just wants to bless us with moisture. Flurries/light snow imby and looks like a micro weenie band across the northern suburbs

    A few stray flurries fill the air as the last of the snow pulls off to the NE. MSP finished with 3.9” today. Storm total snowfall of 12.1” if you include the 8.2” from Sunday night. Storm total precipitation a much needed 2.34” I can’t recall experiencing a storm quite like this one. An initial heavy thumping of wet snow followed by steady all day rain and then crashing temps with several inches of blowing light powdery snow to round it off.

    That map is low for the twin cities. 72hr accumulations are around 10-12”

    Rip city
  23. OrdIowPitMsp
    3.5” at MSP at the 1pm measurement. Still snowing steadily with some heavier returns that’ll rotate through later this afternoon. Minneapolis has now seen 14.7” of snow since Thursday evening. We were at 14.3” season to date before this period of active weather began.

    My office is a cornfield in Lino Lakes today.

    Absolutely puking snow. Roads are completely covered. Building up that late March snowpack. This storm has been awesome. Finally kicked the doldrums of nothingness we’ve been in for months.
